Kinetic Ready for Miller Motorsports Park

Buford, Ga. - This weekend will mark the first running of the IMSA GT3
Cup Challenge presented by Michelin at the new Miller Motorsports Park
located just outside of Salt Lake City, Utah. Many teams in the popular
Porsche series have tested at the new 4.5 mile, 24-turn road course
facility to become acclimated to the new track.

Kinetic Motorsports co-owner and driver, Russell Smith, recently returned
from Miller Motorsports Park after several days of testing in his Porsche
GT3 Cup car in preparation for the auspicious event. The GT3 turned some
excellent laps with Smith behind the wheel leading to high hopes for the
race which takes place Saturday July 15.

"Miller Motorsports Park is one of the most impressive facilities that I
have ever seen," Smith said. "With almost 300 garages, the track has
prepared for the masses which I am quite sure will be present at the
events taking place there. They have really put together a top-notch race
track and I am extremely eager to get back into the Porsche this weekend
and hopefully come home with a great finish."

The IMSA Cup Challenge is well into its second season in conjunction with
the American Le Mans Series with entry fields approaching the upper 40s
in every race this season. This, added to the excitement of the new track
in Utah is sure to offer a weekend of great racing for drivers and fans
alike. Tim Mayer, Chief Operating Officer of the American Le Mans Series
and IMSA, is equally impressed with the course that so many competitors
are anticipating.

"This is the first and largest new facility in North America for quite
some time and has been created in a first class manner all around," said
Mayer. "The GT3 Cup competition represents the top-end of amateur ranks
in this country and deserves the opportunity to race at this facility."
